dosent really take a genious to observe this but theres a lot of "celebrity" death

Pope
Terri Schiavo (edit: not really that important)
Mitch Hedberg
Johnny Cochran
Hunter S. Thompson

probably more but still quite a bit for this year

The Pope isn't dead.........yet.

And wtf? Johnny Cochran? When did this happen? I think you've been "fooled."

edit: Nevermind, he really is dead, I just hadn't heard about it.

yea my bad, someone told me pope died this morning, shouldve checked the cnn headline

I still don't understand why Terri Schiavo is being listed with the other people. The only thing she did was puke her self into brain death, whereas the others were in the public eye while they could still move.

actually didnt she starve herself into brain death?

Her husband won a settlement because the docs apparently misdiagnosed her bulimia, so it sounds like she either puked or shat herself into brain death....

Puking/Crapping yourself to brain death? Is such a thing possible?

Apparently so. The bulimia resulted in a potassium imbalance that caused the heart attack, which eventually lead to her brain turning to mush. Throw in fifteen years and it's like some sort of strange Rube-Goldberg machine designed to rile up the political freaks.

everyone knows that after you die, you poop.

Yes, but you're already dead when you poop. That's different then pooping yourself to brain death, which is a scary thought. Bad diarrhea can kill me.
